Sunday Sweets Celebrates Fall, Basically

Happy Fall, y'all!

Yep, once it hits October I don't care HOW hot it is outside, it's time for autumn leaves on everything:

...and big chunky sweaters:

At least on our pumpkins. :D
Seriously, though, can you believe that's CAKE? I am agog. AGOG I SAY.

By now you've probably picked up that orange is my favorite color, so Fall is when I get to show you how well orange pairs with soft blues:

Eeee, so fun!

Fall is also when everyone gets a little basic, but in the best possible way. I actually find it comforting that half the planet is hanging cute fall garlands on their mantels and reveling in a Pumpkin Spice Latte:

And speaking of all those Fall garlands:

I want this one.


In the cake world it doesn't get more basic than a unicorn head cake, BUT, if you pumpkin-ize it...

BOOM, BABY.

Love it with the sunflowers!

Oh hey, I haven't shown you my favorite orange color combo yet:

Orange and teal is always my favorite - but throw in some bright pink and I'm EXTRA happy.

Also where do you stand on candy corn? Love 'em or curse 'em? A friend told me she loves the Brach's mix of candy corn and chocolate peanuts, and I have to admit, I am intrigued.

And finally, let's go out with either a 2024 mood OR, if you're a typical introvert hermit like me, just another Friday night mood:

PREACH.

I hope these made your heart happy, my friend, and reminded you to get out those decorations you love, bake something fun, or just go get yourself a PSL. Hey, you've earned it. ::hugs::

P.S. Is it too early for the Sanderson Sisters? Asking for MANY friends:

There's also an "I smell children" version at the link, haha.
